There are more than hundred christuva Citrilakiyankal collected by the researcher. Christian Literatures are considered to be liturgical, devotional, secular and social in the category of reformed literature and serve as reference points for Christian theological theological thinkers. Christuva Citrilakiyankal refer to the problems found in the Christian community has revolutionary works, but also point to the unparalled love and purity of Jesus Christ. And tell those who have seen Christ to live in purity. Jesus is the salvation, wisdom and incomparable lord. Simplicity, sweetness, speed and vivacity come together in Christian Literatures. Christian Literatures have given priority in singing about the characteristic interests of the Saints rather than high lighting their physical beauty. In the same way, many have sung the praises of the lord without singing much about the glory of which the lord dwells. In Tamil devotional literary tradition, Bridal mysticism is glorified. This tradition is also found in the Bible. Hero – Heroine is singing in imitation of God as lover and himself as lover.
